As for me and my horse we will serve the Lord






Okay so it´s not my horse but it lives nearby.
This week has been a lot better than the last few fruitless weeks. We have investigators with baptismal dates and we are praying that they will complete with their goals. It is already halfway through september and we are getting anxious for some baptisms.
Apart from that here are some pictures of my life.
If you look closely you will see a sad-faced kitty in my slingshot. a recent convert made me and H. Hunsaker slingshots and taught us how to shoot them.

Poor Elder Lopez got egged and floured on his birthday.
This bug is the reason they filmed Jarassic Park in Costa Rica. You can´t really tell from the photo but this Dragon Fly is about the size of my arm.
 

 My friend waving hello (seriously)
 
I just liked the colors of this Iguana

Well here´s some fuana at least. There´s not enough of that around here.
The 50 foot Jesus Statue that looks over the city. Might I add that it was a very strenuous hike to get up to him.
Notice anything in this river? maybe a 20 foot python? gross.

This is a blue morph butterfly they are from Costa Rica and can be sold in the USA for a lot of money
So also this week we went to the temple, always a good experience. It is very interesting to go through the temple in spanish. To get to the temple we had to wake up at 3 in the morning and take a little shuttle (ps I just spelled that word wrong with an i instead of a u. My comp. had to tell me to correct it as it would be inappropriate to say that word. It cracked me up though if you read the whole sentence.

This animal is a mix between a bear and a dog and has a really loud squeek. They like to eat fruit. Anyway, not sure where I´m typing this but it will end up somewhere. Those are some of my adventures here. And still the Gospel is Preached fighting off weird creatures and all sorts of strange animals. The Gospel is true Sigue adelante. I love you all so very much and can´t wait to see you all. 9 months is going to go by in a breath of a breeze. Anyway, love you  and PURA VIDA A TODOS! P.s. don´t mind the spelling errors I don´t have spell check and you all know I don´t function without it.

My horse and I always serve the Lord. I loved the pictures. It looks beautiful. I can't wait to see it, hopefully in a few years. You look great and so happy. That is what serving the Lord does. Makes us happy and smiling and of course exhausted at the end of the day. Love ya,

oh my gosh I'm still laughting about the Shuttle with an I... especially the Little Shuttle! HAHAHA hilarious i love that Les comes out even in her blog posts. I can just hear you laughing your little giggle and me mostly laughing at you laughing! I seriously miss you but am still a little jealous that you get to see such beautiful flora and fauna. Wish I could see all of that in person. You uplift me and are a great example! Keep up the good work, Lestofold!
Love, Mortofold

So tell me about this horse that is so strong in the gospel. So funny. Costa Rica looks beautiful and I can tell that you are enjoying yourself so much. I'm glad that you have such a good companion who helps you out with your spelling. Titter, titter.
